PROSAt 25,000,000 members, eHarmony.com is huge and popular...and there is a reason for it. It works! No other site results in marriages than eHarmony - about 230+ per day!! (see video). Wow! That is amazing. There are a few reasons for this, too. First, their sign-up and free profile set-up is fairly standard (and unlimited, too). Like most dating sites, you cannot communicate to other members without a paid membership. But these profiles are unique...they are in-depth and because of that fact, they are able to match you based on their proprietary 29 key dimensions that predict relationship success. It must be right with the success that they show! This site really focuses on the serious dating looking for the long-term relationship (i.e. marriage!). It does seem to focus most on straight couples and casual dating is frowned upon quite a bit. eHarmony also offers iPhone applications. Click Her to Learn More... |

CONSThe first most striking thing that you probably noticed is the price. At $59.95/mo, this is one of the most expensive services around (though, with pre-payments, this can drop to as low as $19.95/mo). They probably do this to ween-out the looky-loos and focus on the serious, long-term dater. And similar to Match.com, they do offer ala-carte features (like premium profiles, RelyID - which verifies your identity, and eHarmony Secure Call services). These can be integrated into your membership at a lower cost or you can buy them separately. I do like the RelyID and premium profile services a lot. This can help a lot getting matches and developing trust with your dating prospects. Speaking of search, you are limited to their matching algorithm. You cannot do you own type of general demographic searches like most dating websites base their searching on. Click Her to Learn More... |
